Garage Door Trends for 2021
Garage Door Trends for 2021 will continue to lean toward a sleek, no-nonsense aesthetic with designs favoring a contemporary style. Modern and clean lines provide an uninterrupted flow between these spaces and best complement modern architectural design.
Homeowners also understand the importance of performance and energy efficiency paired with aesthetics. As such, garage doors featuring premium insulation and durability are a top priority in addition to elegance.
Color Trends
White is always a popular color, adding plenty of curb appeal and considerable value to your property. Yet it will quickly show stains from dirt and debris.
Almond: Another neutral color, almond hue can look lovely with houses with lighter exteriors. This color won’t go out of style soon; it matches and highlights different types.
Sandstone is a popular choice for homeowners and will most likely stay with the trends. As a neutral, it flows well with many colors typically used on houses’ exteriors.
Brown: Brown is a pretty versatile color, as many shades of brown can be used on garage doors. Another popular choice, brown, will complement light or dark paint.
Gray: Light gray is among the most popular color trends for garage doors. It is darker than white but has a soft appeal that can help you add a unique flair to the overall look of your garage.
Dark Gray makes a statement regarding garage door color trends for the New Year. It can help your property to stand out more and is a popular choice if you prefer a darker hue. It looks great against a white, beige, or lighter gray house.
Black: This is a modern and stylish color choice for your garage door. This daring, bold choice is beautiful and will cause the whole house to pop. Black can look very sophisticated on garage doors like a carriage house, traditional, or mid-century modern.
Overhead Door’s Aluminum and Steel Garage Doors
There are currently some very beautiful garage door designs around the industry. Mid-century modern garage doors capitalize on minimalism, focusing on clean, straight lines and angles. Some materials commonly used are glass, aluminum, and steel. Mid-century modern garage doors can be customized to fit the look of your home; you can choose color, size, and texture features.
Modern Glass Garage Doors
Glass garage doors have become a significant trend for contemporary design because they allow much natural light to flow into your garage. They are also customizable with insulation, colors, and glass options, while their aluminum frame provides excellent durability.
They are gaining popularity because homeowners are now blending indoor and outdoor living spaces with modern glass garage doors.
Carriage-Style
The original function of carriage houses may be obsolete, but the style remains a sophisticated element. The Carriage House Collection is designed to deliver rustic authenticity without sacrificing modern durability and convenience.
They come in various materials, panel styles, colors, hardware, and window design options.

Home Security
Smart homes are getting smarter as time passes, and as we know, with all the time we spent at home in 2020. Enriching your smart home security with reinforced entry points and upgraded access systems, 2021 is about achieving peace of mind and prioritizing safety… Some products do more than open your garage door wirelessly via a mobile device; they can be personalized to your preferred home access routine.
Your garage door needs to be dependable and essential for the most-used entry to and from home. The Overhead Door Brand has the industry know-how blended with a wide assortment of security-enhancing garage doors.
Smart Technology
Another element of home security and a trend for 2021 is utilizing the most up-to-date technology. With Overhead Door™ Brand’s OHD Anywhere® app, homeowners can monitor or control their garage doors remotely via their smart devices, allowing you to check if your garage door is open or closed or if someone is attempting to operate it without permission.
It even offers the added security benefit of keeping a log of all garage door uses with dates and times.

OHD Anywhere® will also alert the door owner is available for an extended period or after a specific time at night. The OHD Anywhere® app is compatible with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and other smart home systems like Alarm.com, Yonomi, Brilliant, Control4, Clare Controls, and more.
